I did this at my last job. It's truly astonishing how much can run inside the database. Your whole application and business logic if desired. I wrote a lot of PL/SQL which actually was not that unpleasant although god knows who can maintain that after I'm gone.

What I saw there in particular was that any given team will try to solve their problems in their domain. For example, I was in the database administrator team, and they tried to do everything in the database and use database features for everything. Then you have the DevOps/Middleware team who try to do everything in pipelines and with ansible scripts etc.

The best thing you could invest in imo. to be a good allrounder is really good knowledge of unix(like) systems and a shell which is available everywhere.

Write your cicd pipeline logic as shell scripts instead of e.g. the dsl of gitlab/github. That'll be usable in every domain!
